Structure and formatting
Chapter 3 continues a collection of proverbs that ends in chapter nine.
Special concepts in this chapter
My Son
Occasionally, the author addresses a proverb to "my son." This is not intended to restrict the words of that proverb to only males. Instead, it is simply a form used to pass on advice as a father does to his son.
Wisdom is feminine
You may notice that wisdom is referenced using a feminine pronoun. This is a feature that is carried in from the Hebrew language. This may apply well in your language but if it does not, follow the conventions of your language. (See: rc://en/tw/dict/bible/kt/wise)
